This man speaks the truth. I feel like manufacturers are having this major affair with chrome crap these days, they need to end it! Ruining otherwise good designs.

I don't think the sheet metal on the doors and rear guards will change that much from the Toyota/Scion version.

Where it was parked aside, the fact that it's so boring leads me to assume that this must be the BRZ and not the Toyota. Subaru haven't designed a good looking car in at least 6 years. This thing looks like the bastard child of some Hyundai Coupe and a Honda CRX.

I certainly hope the Toyota retains some of the fantastic lines that the concepts had. If their production model is too conservative, I can see the younger crowd they are trying to attract being driven away (pardon the pun), despite the performance. I know I'll be extremely disappointed.

Then again - does anyone remember this guy?

All Subaru test/mule/whatever vehicles have licenseplates starting with MZ.

That picture is taken in front of a hotel and it's some sort of BMW owners club, some of their members are spending their time close to the Nürburgring. Nothing to do with a new M3.

I just noticed theres a turn light on the fender above the front wheel. It's pretty hard to see with the camo, but it's there.

That's a fender vent

Has to be some regulation/law with turn signal height?

Maybe, just seems odd. I'd rather have it built into the side mirrors.

Levi · 09-11-2011, 11:34 AM

It must have something to do with EU regulations. Now even BMW is putting the turn signal light on the side view mirrors.

By the way, none of the prototypes have fixed caliper brakes (Brembo). Hope this keeps the price low. Anyway the serious ones will upgrade anything that comes stock, even Brembo's, to AP Racing, Endless or Brembo GTR.
